Lost and Then Found

On my way to the gym when I realized I'd forgotten my Eco-friendly water bottle. Decision time: add to the Earth's carbon footprint and drive home or suffer judgements about my plastic bottle consumption. Hey, I recycle and drive a Prius. I bought bottled water.

Purchase in hand, I navigated my hybrid to the gym. Just then I received an intuitive message, you know a thought not my own, to turn right at the next intersection. So I turned and saw a petite woman in a stylish white coat standing in the middle of the street. Her eyes pleaded for help. All the known scenarios flashed through my head and I stopped anyway.

"Do you know where the Unitarian Church is? "I've tried following these directions and they don't make sense."

I looked at my watch, it was 10:55AM. Now I understood the situation, church started in five minutes.

"Get in your car and follow me," I commanded.

White coat woman followed me ten blocks to the church. She waved. I smiled and waved back knowing that her map questing had ended while another had begun...finding a parking space.

What do the wise ones say about the voices we hear? There's a loud voice and a quiet one. The loud voice is the mind, the mental chatter, the ego. The quiet voice emanates from the soul and from spirit. This voice can guide you if you choose to listen. Imagine the blessings that occur just by accepting and acting on the messages.
